Hi all,
I have a question about drives.
I am a video editor and I have been given by a client an 18TB external drive formatted as APFS-encrypted, and its password.
As I edit on Windows, I need a third-party software that allows my PC to read it, and so far I've been using " Paragon - APFS for Windows" which has always worked perfectly.
However, it only allows "read-only" for encrypted drives, making impossible for me to work on it ( or even see it in File Explorer).
Ideally I'd copy all the footage onto another drive which is not encrypted and more easily readable/writable, but unfortunately I don't have another 18TB drive for this operation.
I'm looking anywhere if there's a way to remove the password, but Disk Utility (I have a macbook for this) only lets you change it, not remove it.
Any advices/ideas?
Many thanks
Alessandro
